It's almost a year with Ruby!

I adopted Ruby (Foxy) from DPS on April 28th 2009. I've had her for almost a year now and were going to be celebrate her Birthday on the 28th of April.

Ruby has been the funniest & smartest dog I have ever known. We took her to doggy classes where she excelled, and she has learned many commands and tricks. She currently has 13 tricks/commands under her belt, and were learning more tricks as we go. The one thing that makes me laugh is the way she snorts when we play tug with her toys.

Ruby has gone to many dog parks, & has been very approprite at all of them with all size dogs. She was bullied once (attacked), but the dog that bullied her no longer goes to that park, so it's all good :) Ruby loves puddles! I have never known a dog to really like water, esspecially a shiba mix! We took her to Fort Funsten and she ran around off leash, I was very impressed at how she stayed close by me, but still sniffed around and greeted other dogs, she really is a treasure.

I take Ruby to work with me everyday. She spends the day with her friends, Mummers (pug), Cutter (Chuwenie), Breezie (Pitty), Romeo (Staffy), Cheezpa(Dobi), and Scoopy( Shi-tzu)! Its can get full sometimes, but they all get along. At home Ruby likes to spend her time cuddled up in her beds or chewing bully stixs. She tries to convince the cats that she's a friend and only wants to play, but they don't understand. :) When it's bed time She will cuddle on Manuels side of the bed, and walke me up in the morning to go potty.

There is so much more to share, but how can one sum up a wonderfull year? Thank you so much for Ruby (Foxy) She has been a joy and truly a treasure, a "Ruby in the ruff". :)
